Aging, Mortality, and Care
Registration is Required!
Email lifelonglearningsm@gmail.com to register
When: Thursdays: Apr. 2, 9, 16, 30
Where: San Marcos Public Library
Multi-Purpose Room
Time: 10:00-11:15am
Fee: FREE!
Course Description
If we are fortunate, we will grow older. If we are honest, we know we will die. And as humans, we depend on others as we are depended upon along the way. Yet our culture rarely pauses to examine what these realities mean.
This four-part series invites us to reflect together on aging, care, mortality, and meaning. Rather than offering comfort or easy answers, these conversations aim for clarity: What does dignity truly require as we age? What do we owe to one another when independence shifts? Is fear of death rational or distracting? Does a good life require being remembered?
Grounded in lived experience and guided by philosophical reflection, this series creates space for serious, respectful conversation about the chapters of life we all share.
